Thanks - but both tables are set to no wrapping. Both are centered on the
page, and other settings appear to be identical.

Jessica,
Have you checked if the tables are wrapped? Table - Table Properties - Table
tab - set wrapping to None. Can you delete the paragraph marker now?

I have an inherited document with two tables separated by a paragraph
mark.
I want to join them into a single table.

Attempts to erase the paragraph mark result in the error sound; I can't
erase the mark.

Any advice short of copying the whole second table and using Paste Cells?

Thanks.
